When you make a syntax error in Climaxima, what should I do? Right now all I do is to reject the submit request, and instead move the cursor to the point where the error was seen

(searching for pictures of 'climaxima' returns interesting, but not helpful, results...)

Could you insert an "(%e1) <error message here>" object prior to the input? The error-message object would render as insignificant in the typescript unless it was immediately prior to the current input line, and could be clicked to toggle between big/verbose and small/insignificant.

I click on the label and it hides it. It could be useful for large outputs from any command.

Hi all - I got mcclim running on mezzano directly on HW and performance was horrible. Really glacial. Admittedly, it's was on a low end laptop, but is anyone

a lot of generic function dispatching is involved for each single operation, so if mezzano doesn't perform it fast, then this might be a bottleneck

m going to get back to working on the mcclim port. Would like to get it merged back into the mainline.

It needs some cleanup though. for example, I'm using slot-value way too often instead of having accessor functions.

And, of course, it will need review. I expect there will be lots of changes from that as well.

you may go with with-accessors, but if you are sure that no auxilliary functions are relevant there, then slot-value may be just fine if it improves already terrible performance

froggey: any comment on performance of slot-value versus accessors versus (with-slots ...)?
